Also, I am pretty set on getting either the Titleist 910H or 913H.  I've hit some other hybrids and just performed the best for me.  And I love that I can adjust it.

Have you just hit them, or hit them with the supervision of a club-fitter? If you haven't spent some time with a fitting specialist, I recommend that you do. Otherwise, you may pass on an iron that you don't hit well, when the reality is it's probably not set up for you.

If you like to stay in one line, lotza people like the AP2s. Demo. If you fall in love, they ought to have a nice selection of shafts from which to choose.

I'd just about given up on ever gaming a hybrid until I found a basically new 913H 21* on the used rack for a ridiculous discount (still had the sticker on it).  It's the only hybrid I've been able to hit well.  I don't think it's the most forgiving in the world so I wouldn't recommend it to a 20 capper, but if you can put a good swing on the ball it's fantastic.  VERY easy to work the ball either way with it.

Adams for both hybrids and irons.

UPS brought my new 588 Altitude 4 hyron today. I have mixed up my own set, 588 TT 7-PW and 588 Altitude 4-6. The hybrid irons are going to be a game changer for me. Consistent shaft length, matching steel shafts and same feel at address. I hit these longer and more consistent than my AMP Cell hybrids. The ball rockets off the face. Ball flight is a tad higher than I'd like but to no detriment, bores through the air and ignores the mild winds.
